Tirebolu Gumushane Mountain Roads Bikepacking Mtb | Cycling Tour and Videos
Day one: 153km 2983m
On the 1st day of our 8-day bikepacking ride, we started from Tirebolu and continued towards Gümüşhane. After making our final preparations, we started to drive towards the mountains. Driving following the mountains! It was pretty hot. The arms burned a lot from the first day. With the excitement of the first day, we forgot to take precautions :) Cycling became more enjoyable as we climbed higher. We continued on this main road, which is not very busy, towards Gümüşhane. After turning towards Zigana village, the route became beautiful. This little touch to the route was great! We took a break in the village of Zigana. Then we went downhill, watching the scenery. Nature and scenery were amazing. By the way, we tried to fly a drone for the first time :) It was an exciting experience. Then we continued to avoid being in the dark. Of course, we did not go directly to Gümüşhane after we went down to the main road. After driving together for a certain km, Tubi continued on the main road. Because there are so many tunnels on this road, he got on the bus after a certain point. We entered the mountain roads from behind and started climbing. My gears are pretty messed up. Because of this, I had to go very slowly. The village roads leading to the summit were worth seeing... I continued by taking photos and videos. Of course, the heat, the slopes and the mountains forced it; but we were happy... After reaching the top, a long descent awaited us. The view above was magnificent! After putting on our razors, we reached Gümüşhane by following the mountains. We met with Tubi and had dinner. We prepared for the next day and went to the hotel to rest.
It has become our habit to go down to the cities from the mountains.
